WSID has a 40-foot right-of-way on the western most edge of the <br /> property at 21080 Mt. House Parkway for the operation of a 30" cast-in-place concrete pipe. <br /> There is currently a residential driveway that crosses over this pipeline. The applicant would like <br /> operate a landscape business from this property and it is our concern that the traffic generated by <br /> this business and change in use, could potentially cause damage to our facilities. <br /> We would like to request that the county require that the applicant provide a report prepared by a <br /> structural engineer showing that the current driveway is sufficient to meet the needs of the <br /> landscape business without causing damage to WSID's pipeline. If the cover IS NOT found to <br /> be sufficient, WSID would like to be part of the process to approve whatever improvements the <br /> structural engineer recommends. <br /> It is also WSID's policy to require a hold harmless agreement when approving projects such as <br /> this. I am following with a copy of our standard hold harmless agreement, as an example, but <br /> you may want to have the applicant contact us directly so that an agreement that is appropriate <br /> for their situation can be prepared. <br />
